CUPPING

Cupping is a traditional Chinese therapy that uses small glass or plastic cups to create gentle suction on the skin.

At Renew, we tailor the placement, suction, and duration of the cups to each person’s unique needs. We use two main methods: stationary cupping and sliding cupping. In sliding cupping, a light oil is applied and the cups are gently moved across the skin, creating a “reverse massage” that covers larger areas and encourages circulation and muscle relaxation. Stationary cupping keeps the cups in place to focus on specific areas, providing deeper support to targeted muscles and tissues. Both methods aim to restore balance, relieve tension, and enhance overall well-being.

What can Cupping treat?

Cupping helps support the smooth flow of Qi and blood, promoting relaxation, improved circulation, and a sense of harmony throughout the body. Many people find it helpful for easing muscle tension, supporting respiratory health, or simply feeling more relaxed and revitalized. Temporary marks or mild discomfort can sometimes occur, which typically fade within a few days as the body naturally recovers. By encouraging the body’s natural processes, cupping is a gentle, safe, and restorative way to support overall health and vitality.
